Seeing one lil jeep winching up another lil jeep over that hump has to be one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen. LOVED it! 😂

[@Fixitall-ACE]

Always love getting notified about some good old MisAdventures!!

[@jaywebb3105]

Trevor has a gas leak. The float maybe a little high. Great to see you two. You both seem so much happier.

[@SCWanderer]

The lab coat/white board lesson was the best part!

[@methylmike]

I am calling it now This channel is gonna make it big

[@MisAdventureLab]

Thanks!

[@edwinschlee8374]

Need to put a wheelie wheel on the back to keep from going over backwards! The smaller sprocket helped.

[@jamesbigham9036]

I am really enjoying this mini jeep series. I am sure you guys will get everything figured out.

[@MyLifeThai371]

I am so glad that you guys eventually made it through the funnel. Matt's offroad recovery said that one can be a doozy!

[@JourneysShared]

Things to try, smaller gear up front with a bigger gear at the axle will bring low end power. Or a bigger carb, with opening up the intake on the head to match the bigger carb and open up the exhaust will bring a huge different feel of the power. good luck great show

[@brettmorton7365]

You guys are great entertainment for the 8 year old within me 👍🏻👍🏻 Im impressed by the wheel spin.. you need front wheel drive too 😂😂

[@greenwings1195]

Install a HUGE oil cooler. Probably somewhat solve the issue. And if u want to get fancy, install a thermostatic fan switch and electric fan on the cooler!

[@treyveston7965]

Holy cow! It's Trevor from MORR! One of the best folks that was on that crew! Subscribed.

[@AdamAlistair]

I know Trevor must have drawn that owl. It looks just like him! Love watching you guys mess around with these mini jeeps. Makes me smile every time.

[@Devnician]

You guys are awesome! Every video I'm jealous that I'm not there with you guys goofin' around and having fun :) Maybe let Eric drive one of those jeeps next time, perhaps he'll realize the golden nugget wasn't so bad after all :D

[@MisAdventureLab]

😆

[@katreniaclark]

If you have the time and money, that is a ton of fun. LOVE seeing your videos.

[@Backroad_Junkie]

It's always good to measure the sketchiness of what you're doing. I think you need to drop an LS into one of those things....

[@1954shadow]

Might want to get Colin Furze in on this one, lol.

[@claudiaveltrie1532]

I loved the look on Trevor’s face when he was trying to go up the rock (without the winch line). 😣 Always love your content! ❤

[@brockryan3405]

This video of how much upgrading stock equipment is really fun. There is always a better part out there but at what point can you tell the difference? Seeing how much things improved here was a good time. If that is the LAB part of your channel name... I like it.

[@graememckay9972]

There needs to be a mini wrecker build for mini recoveries. Should be a fleet of mini crawlers, bloggers, drag, drift, mini lowboys.

[@felderup]

mini tanks too, they can be slapped together from snowmobile tracks.

[@shythawks9549]

Yes like a recovery. Getting these guys together with plumbing co would be sick for this series

[@Arturro671]

I feel like Grind Hard Plumbing Co might be a channel for you as well.

[@madrew2003]

I guess I'm just like Tucker. "here we go" then Tucker and I both started laughing simultaneously. You guys are absolutely the best entertainment out there! Thanks for taking us along!

[@eddavis447]

Tucker and Trevor... This looks like a lot of fun!

[@samiam6382]

I deeply appreciate the mad mad behind the scenes joke about Morr. Mini jeeps vs the worlds largest off-road wrecker. The exquisite tongue in cheek sarcasm is one of the most interesting and intellectual things I have ever witnessed.lol

[@TrevorDennis100]

Many many years ago, trials bikes were mostly 250cc Bultacos, and much heavier than what we think of as Trials bikes nowadays. Then in 1972 Honda produced the TL125, which most of us pretty much laughed at. The first time I saw one, I was waiting for my turn to climb a long steep section, and a large lad turned up on a TL125. We were 100% certain that he had no chance, but he crawled up that hill going slow so as not to lose traction, and shocked the bejezus out of us. Tucker climbing the slope in the modified Jeep reminded me of that day.

[@shythawks9549]

This channel is one of my new top favorites. I’m not a fan of channels with scrips or plan sayings or whatever. I know channels have to have plans on videos and purchase the products then be organized but there is nothing better than “mad lipping” and going with the flow of the series. You guys missing from Matt’s off-road was a big change and not sure in the best way? I love that channel but I love the mixup of the things you guys bring. Keep it going!!!!!

[@Buck1954]

What you guys are proving to me is it may be better to build my own off-road go-kart. The only thing I won't have is the cool Jeep body.

[@mattdeming228]

You guys are a riot! I've still got that OEM service manual for a '99 XJ I'll send you Trevor!

[@TWRSHO]

Keep ‘em coming! Great videos! Enjoying them all!

[@henriknordeng]

This series are awsome. Please go full send and give them a real offroad rebuild. Would be awsome to see you guys do that.

[@mohawk2185]

Well, atleast you are on the right track to learning what RORY DOES ON THE TRAIL AND IN THE GARAGE

[@DoctorHayduke]

How did I not know this channel existed? Awesome, guys! I loved your lecture on knowledge and power and owls! Subscribed, fo sho! Great branding too... _someone_ has a design eye...

[@wmose3694]

man you guys are fun to watch all i ask is that you dont break your necks while hooning around out there

[@Handwrench83]

Like I said in the previous video you did. There is no replacement for displacement. Need bigger motor. The rest is trivial after.

[@941Earl]

You guys are an absolute riot. Quickly becoming my favorite channel!

[@lrcb40]

Love the content guys. Just good, simple interesting fun

[@cw50must]

Those things look like a lot of fun.

[@jberg8159]

That was a good one guys! Very funny!

[@Mark_Bridges]

Tucker's a huge dude for one of these jeeps, but Trevor and George aren't far behind. This is a good series, keep it up.

[@markallen4127]

The bubble machine noises!!!!!! Ha ha!

[@coltbuildsit]

You guys are making these things awesome. I cannot wait to test them out the next time I'm down there.

[@jasonplant5432]

This whole mini jeep stuff is just wonderful crazy fun.

[@shaunandmichelleoneill9026]

....as always guys, riveting information thrown in with a whole wad of entertainment. Well done.....

[@edward5979]

You two guys are like Stan and Ollie, definitely misadventure stuff going on there.

[@Backroad_Junkie]

More like Larry and Curly. Moe is away on business, lol...

[@mikewhitman745]

I recognize these guys. Good for you!!

[@bradleymadosh911]

Glad I watched your videos this morning it made me laugh and feel better. Now to get this Day started

[@joshwilmot3186]

Met you guys at SEMA this year. Keep up the great videos. The mini jeeps are awesome!

[@MisAdventureLab]

It was nice meeting you Josh!

[@Drones_and_more]

As mentioned get the new carb set up right, but thats some awesome testing.

[@DancerOfClouds]

You guys are having way too much fun!!!! 😂 That was awesome!!!!!

[@josteincarlsen2905]

Bigger muffler and pipe makes a big difference!! 😊😊 I just did it on my 125

[@MrFredsDIY]

This channel reminds me of Thanksgiving, lots of turkeys but it tastes so good! Great video guys!

[@duaneayers6117]

Trevor, Barnes& Noble needs to jump in on this project.

[@Aussiem8e]

So glad you guys made a channel!

[@curtismcfadden9674]

You guys Rock!!! Keep up the great content.

[@chipgoostree2959]

Funny stuff, Trevor, Tucker love it!

[@AFloridaSon]

By the time you're finished with them, you could have bought full size Jeeps. But where's the fun in that?😅

[@mitchellsavage6933]

im loving your content!! you guys just do what makes you happy and it is brilliant to see the smiles on your faces when you do stuff

[@MisAdventureLab]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy it

[@dreamlinerkoa6438]

I was waiting for bubbles to come out of the Jeep 😂😂

[@dustcommander100]

The amount of math and computer simulations you guys must be doing behind the scenes is mind-boggling! And I know the whiteboard presentations done by Trevor, although concise, were most likely toned down for those like me with limited technical skills.😊 I really enjoy your videos! One thing I might point out is that when those Jeeps stop moving with the engines still revving, the clutch is likely slipping and heating rapidly. It would be really good if you could switch over a manual clutch so it could be controlled better.

[@sherylabercrombie165]

LMAO I am crying here! I love that you guys started this channel! Trevor had me cracking up at the end there!

[@kc5goi]

I swapped out the 14T to a 12T today. I used the original sprocket retainer instead of using the one that came with the sprocket. Still touches the chain a little but holy smoke did that change it. It can climb hills with much left effort. Going to 20s is my next move. I know I will loose a little of that bottom end we got today but there is plenty to spare. Thank you for doing this series you guys!

[@dustinhunt1980]

I might do that gear change on ours. We never run it full speed anyways and would rather be able to cross a ditch

[@michaelgarmane2504]

Love your channel. You guys are a riot. Can't wait for the next one. 😂😂😂😂

[@robtalbot4594]

You guys are on the right path! Very entertaining video! Keep it up!

[@CarltonPrice]

Love love love the content. Great great videos guys!!

[@scottsymonds5497]

If I drink enough Big Mac shakes I hope to grow up just like you guys. Yeah. I want a mini Jeep.

[@cgrizzwald7831]

So what shocks are everyone using to replace the stiff stock ones?

[@eduardocandeias7533]

I liked the logic about the clutch. Not having the knowledge absolutely equals not having the power.

[@dmcgreg]

Have you guys done anything to take the rattle out of the body? My x-pro sounds terrible at top speed….everything vibrates like crazy. Thanks for the other tips!

[@3187rakkasan]

Haha.... Every time I see those dang jeeps for sale online, I think how ridiculous it would be for me to buy one. Having said that, Y'all really make me want one now.....bahahahahaha!! Keep having fun!!

[@davesusek3330]

Great video Trevor thank you.

[@felderup]

that loon that drove one to moab probably can give some tips on improving them things. i'd only be using one of them on relatively improved roads, so i'd need a proper diff, and a more flexible rear suspension. the swingarm assembly under my weight would get destroyed, so, ball joints at the end of independent arms and a proper panhard rod.

[@stevevick9946]

😂this channel is awesome! Can’t wait to see the mini Jeeps in more episodes

[@jamesgravel7755]

Your little breakdown on the white board made me laugh so hard I choked. Lol. 2 mins in the video already a classic

[@bryandamage4007]

Great video, bro. Had a great time watching y'all sort everything out!

[@trvn0891]

Clutch part link, thank you in advance

[@yorelescovar2716]

You guys could try a retractable and lockable back wheel with a spring to avoid tipping backwards (like the dragster have)

[@knives357]

i like the whiteboard. i like the whiteboard slaps. that was hilarious

[@bobjohnson1710]

Sorry to hear about your recent operation Trevor. My sister had my brother-in-law "fixed" and his voice has gone up two octaves ever since!

[@MisAdventureLab]

😂😂

[@ronneidert]

You guys are having way too much fun!

[@brandonruano882]

HERE'S A CRAZY THOUGHT IDEA I HAD, JUST SIMPLY SWAP FROM A ATV ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, PARTS, TIRES ONTO THOSE MINITURE JEEP

[@shcaskey]

"...i saw a KZbin video...im an expert.."😁i can relate!! i appreciate the diagram...the officious white coat was a clear indication of your expertise.... 😆🤣😅😁😀😂

[@mike9500]

for oil, the best you can use is rotella T4 oil. yes the desiel stuff. it will allow yourt motor to run so much better and smoother.

[@laymansview5246]

I figured changing sprockets would be your best bet. Of course, when I mentioned it, I was thinking front and back. How's the drive train set up on those things? I take it after watching this video the clutch is on engine crankshaft, kind of like a chainsaw. But then what, chain drive to gearbox then to rear end or is the gearbox part of the rear end? When I mentioned experimenting with belts on the earlier video, I was picturing more of a snowmobile setup.

[@MisAdventureLab]

We don’t know much about all of that. All I can tell you is the motor and gearbox are one unit with a wet semi-auto clutch. We got some rear sprockets as well but they were the wrong ones so we worked with what we had. Thanks for your comments and suggestions!

[@dodgeme1986truck]

It's a 3+reverse semi auto atv engine/trans assembly with direct chain drive to rear axle... What I think would be awesome is if they converted one to 4wd/4x4... There are components out there to build a 4x4 version either via chain drive or via SAS differential axle swap

[@laymansview5246]

@@MisAdventureLab I know about working with what you have, been there done that as they say. I'm thinking gearing is the way to go for what you all seem to want to do. But I guess you could go with boring and stroking the engine for more HP. Good luck whatever you all do.

[@laymansview5246]

Thanks @@dodgeme1986truck. That gives me a better idea of what's going on.

[@laymansview5246]

@@MisAdventureLab Something else I just thought of. Go to your nearest airport and see if you can buy some AVGAS. 110 octane will give them a boost. You won't be able to run them for long though without improving the cooling system.

[@alandawson2813]

You guys crack me up, you lot are funnier than a fight in a wheel barrow. From kiwi land.

This looks like the most fun you can have with your pants on

This channel should be at 100k subs. Great synergy!!!

[@kdgckg]

Maybe a wheelie bar… (Wonder if you could mount those Jeep bodies on a 4x4, 4wheelers?) Use the four wheeler seat, and handlebars… I wonder what that would be like?🤔

[@jadenspence393]

So glad y’all started a channel

[@user-up6ug2ek2q]

I saw in one of the KZbin channels a guy put a 440cc engine. They beefed up the frame and did a lot of modifications to handle the new engine. This would be a different challenge for you. Food for thought.😂

[@willyd-adv]

3rd video in a row I'm saying just fit a Hi/LOW CT110 motor. You will not regret it with on and offroad usability. Plus they are 4 speed. Also use an intake manifold adapter plate, can put the manifold at any angle then. I build custom race and adventure 125cc bikes for a living

[@MisAdventureLab]

Thanks for the suggestions. We might put them in to play if we continue to mess around with the mini Jeeps after Moab.

[@willyd-adv]

@@MisAdventureLab hell yes, you'll wish you did it sooner once you do 🤣 Btw you can also easily get around 14hp out of them too with a 140cc top end and high lift cams. Your one's will be around 6-7 hp currently.

[@simplyexisting1125]

I had a Yamaha blaster 200cc two stroke and I only weigh 170 lbs and that quad was weak . Especially one you get into the dunes. You two should consider putting 650cc vtwin's in those jeaps.

[@just-in-time6069]

U need to adjust what u thought was clutch bolt hit the screw in middle turn it out then turn it back in till it just engage pressure the more u turn the center screw the more the clutch will slip. That will work if it hard shift u just need little more tension as clutch wares u back that center screw out . Ive done things with that motor u never could imagine and any time u take the exhaust open they will run lean factory are lean and if u get clutch right it should walk right up them hills I use to take 70 3 wheeler on Hills that were way stepper but I wish I was there to show u the simple and cheap way to make them run better.i wish I had funds to own one I would love to stretch 8-10 inch right at the center door area so u could mould new rocker panel to connect the body together kinda like diamond plat e lower rocker guard and it still look ok because of no door also small roll bar with 1inch wider hub or axel maybe bigger cam or bigger bore cylinder lot them copy motors are interchangeable and u can do upgrades from a factory big cubes motor because there's so many Chinese copy's old Honda with bearings in cam area and 4 valve head lit little things old Honda motor back when I was building those motors I swap them on every i could riding tractors go karts even use bed frame L channel all bolt together with lawnmower reàr axel and front before I could weld things I was the kid if it had motor I would ride it or make it propelled something.

You will definitely want reverse
